Exclamation HELP! Lost on engine swap

Ok, as of now I have a 95 GTI- vr6, and love it. Only problem is the body has small flaw's all over, (hail?) as well as the engine has 150,000+ miles on it. Ive been looking into things I could do. Ive decided to sell it, but am looking for another car. Il have another car to drive around (81 bmw 733) until I have a car, and will be selling the bmw for money towards this car

Ive decided to either

buy a old trans-am/firebird/ etc.
They sell them cheap, but parts are expensive, and not as reliable

The more likely route
buy a honda (maybe something else)
and get an engine swap
Later on, turbo it

Problem? Which engine do I buy, and what model do I put it in? I will be having help, as I have a friend that has already done this, and another that will be doing this soon. Please fill me in with suggestions. I should have around 3,000-3,500 to spend, along with money from the bmw later on. I like the engine swap, and after I sell the bmw, I have money to turbo it!

Ideas? Thanks to everyone to help

well your kinda all over the place here, if your gonna go honda get an older civic or crx 88-91yrs. then buy a b18a and turbo that, just those mods alone should put you into the low 14's.
